Yoga & Meditation Instructor

 

Jason’s meditation journey began in early 2016 when he needed to find a way to cope with the moment-to-moment stresses of life, and to slow down. Since attending his first class, Jason’s passion for meditation grew and inspired him to want to teach. Shortly thereafter, Jason completed the 25-hour Awaken to Stillness Meditation Teacher Training, which afforded him the opportunity to deepen his own practice and to gain the knowledge and tools to be able to share the gift of meditation with others. In Jason’s meditation class, students can expect a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Jason explores the various meditation techniques while centering each class on different themes and intentions. Jason provides tips and tricks for building a consistent at-home meditation practice. Students can expect to spend time each class focusing on breathing, and learning techniques for calming the mind and body.

Jason is also certified to teach the practice of Vinyasa yoga. As an avid Yogi since 2011 and seeing the impact yoga has had in his life, he was inspired to share the gift of yoga with others. Jason recently completed the Svadhyaya 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training. Students can expect to explore moving meditations that build strength, help to focus the mind and body, and to learn to find balance on and off the mat. Jason is deeply grateful for the loving wisdom his teachers have shared with him.

Tiffany Pierson got her first taste of yoga in 2009. After just one practice she was left with a renewed and energized feeling amidst a world of chaos that kept her wanting more of this thing called Yoga. The more she found herself on the mat the better she felt in all areas of life. Finding a passion she hadn't felt since being a child playing softball and cheerleading, Tiffany dove head first into any yoga class or workshop she could find. Wanting to further her knowledge in all things yoga and share that passion with others Tiffany completed her 200 Hour Svadhyaya Teacher Training in February of 2016. Delving even deeper into the complete yoga practice, she also completed Awaken to Stillness Meditation Teacher Training in 2016, Vipassana Fellowship Meditation Course in 2017, and Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra training in 2018. The journey of the self through yoga and meditation has made a huge impact on how she views and lives life. Tiffany feels lucky to have had the opportunity to work with yoga practitioners of all levels through public classes, private sessions, workshops, private, community and corporate events, and even internationally through yoga retreats; Helping each and every person find the strength and passion inside of themselves. With focus on awareness and engagement, along with the gentle touch of assisting, Tiffany enjoys finding new ways to help others connect with their inner strength while encouraging the physical strength and healing to support it.

Since beginning her first yoga teacher training in 2004, Sarah has been bringing yoga to everyone from the Beginner Student to the Advanced Practitioner. One of her gifts is for making the heavy, esoteric yoga philosophy understandable by creatively weaving the teachings of the Sutras and the Bhagavad Gita into her classes. Sarah teaches Meditation as wells as Vinyasa, Restorative, and Prenatal Yoga styles, but she also has fun teaching an invigorating and challenging Spin and Barre Fitness class too.

When Sarah isn't teaching yoga, she loves walking her dog Charlie in the afternoon, doing Mommy-and-Me Yoga with her daughter and laughing with her husband and little girl in the evening. If you don't find her with her head down in a down dog, you'll find her nose up in a good book. Her hope for all her yoga students and beings everywhere is that they will experience their light in this lifetime and shine brightly.

Heather has been practicing yoga for 15 years. She came to the practice when her children were babies and she needed some “me” time. She credits yoga with teaching her that the body and mind are one, and that what we learn about ourselves on the mat we should take off the mat whenever possible. The practice of yoga has so much to teach us about how to live our lives, parent, exercise and breathe.
